normEndp: Representation of normally distributed endpoints
Description
Represents normally distributed endpoints in clinical trials.
Usage
normEndp(mu, sigma)
Value
A S4 object that represents a normally distributed endpoint in a clinical trial
Arguments
mu
vector of the expected responses of the treatment groups, should have
length K
(i.e. one entry for each treatment group).
sigma
vector of the standard deviations in each treatment group,
should have length K (i.e. one entry for each treatment group).
Details
The normEnd function is a constructor function
for an S4 object of the class normEnd representing
a normally distributed endpoint in a clinical trial.
In conjunction with the assess function, normal endpoints
admit the calculation of the exact type-I-error probability and power.
